Idaho Below Average On Equality

A report on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) equality in America’s cities by the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBT civil rights organization, rated 291 cities across the nation, including three cities in Idaho.  The 2013 Municipal Equality Index (MEI) is the second edition of the only nationwide rating system of LGBT inclusion in municipal law.  This year’s index finds that cities across the country, including in Idaho, continued to prove that municipalities will act to support equality for LGBT people, even where states and the federal government have failed to do so.  The MEI was issued in partnership with the Equality Federation Institute. The average score for cities in Idaho is 31 out of 100 points, which falls below the national average.  Boise scored 56 points, Meridian scored 13 points, and Nampa scored 24 points/ Paul Gueguierre , Human Rights Council.
